I recently found a high mileage '06 Subaru Baja w the Turbo EJ 25 motor.
Pulled it to do cambelt, water pump, seals,etc and not surprisingly found the turbo hoses inlet from air mass meter and outlet to intercooler hard as rocks and are showing signs of cracking. Does anyone have any experience with the aftermarket silicone hoses vs the factory hoses? Baja motor parts appear to interchange with Foresters and WRXs. Perrin and Grimmspeed etc are pricy and the stuff on eBay has mixed reviews for quality and fit. I'm not thinking there is going to be much if any performance gain but if I'm going to be fighting parts that don't fit , I'll go back with stock. I've already had a fast look on NASIOC, but didn't come up with much. |
